Making security easy

In today’s world, security cannot be taken for granted; and nor can it’s need be underestimated. Before you allow anyone into your home, or grant them permission to enter your building or office, it is always advisable to identify who it is you are dealing with. By letting unknown visitors enter your premises, you may be risking harm to yourself as well as your property.

A Rickard Security provided security system lets you talk to and even view your intended visitors and guests, well before they enter your residence or business. With a state-of-the-art intercom or other entry verification unit in place, you’ll be able to:

Prevent un-invited visitors from setting foot into your home or office

Protect your property from vandalism and theft

Prepare yourself to receive guests well before they arrive at your home or office

Dissuade ‘tailgaters’ from making an entry behind legitimate guests and visitors

Ensure only authorised visitors are granted access, saving you the time and trouble of dealing with people who inadvertently find themselves at your door

With the right access control systems provided by us, securing your home, office or other premises becomes simple and easy. And because our systems are built to deliver flexibility and choice, you can extend the security of your property by integrating other add-on components, including our world renowned VIDEX entry control systems.

With a Rickard Security solution on your side, you are always in control of your own security!

You may choose to allow access to anyone you talk with or view, or speak with them and let them know you do not want them to enter your premises.

Ultimately, our security solutions are designed and built to empower you with the final decision on who gets to enter, and who is denied access. The choice is always yours!

Intercom’s – Flexibility in security

It is sometimes extremely difficult for residents, workers and building workers to walk to the front door or gate to meet, greet and verify each and every guest and visitor’s identity before granting them access to the building or premises. The challenge is magnified a hundred fold when the property in question has multiple residents, multiple floors and a number of access points.

Have the convenience of remotely interacting with guests and intending visitors, before making a decision on whether to allow access or deny it

Be able to open doors and gates only after you are satisfied that you are letting a friend (and not a foe!) into your property

Do all of this from a safe and comfortable distance

The solution: Rickard Security supplied intercom systems!

When you are looking for an intercom as part of a security solution, you are looking for something that will provide you flexibility of use. Ideally, you’d like the solution that you choose to:

Use already existing telephone sets – like a standard B.T device – rather than go out and search for other alternate devices to support your security system

Work with your existing phone, instead of having two separate phones – one for intercom access and the other for regular phone contact

Offer you the flexibility of controlling your door access through the same access systems that are used to answer your regular phone

Have your system call more than one phone from the same entrance panel

Not require a separate keypad to release your door/gate, but use your telephone’s keypad to do so

Divert a door entrance panel call to another number, in the event you need your visitor to speak with someone else on the premises

Whether you feel comfortable just speaking with your visitors before determining they are safe to enter, or whether you feel secure viewing who is at your entrance first, before granting them permission to enter; you’ll find the perfect intercom solution right here on our website – guaranteed!

With Rickard Security solutions, you have the flexibility of having all of these features… and much more, at your disposal. Use our intercom solutions as stand-alone security features, or integrate them with other door access control components to create an even more robust layered security apparatus for your premises.

Easy to install, simple to program, our intercom solutions give residents, property managers and building operators the flexibility to create security protocols that are as simple or as complex as you need.

Restricting access – Knowing your visitors

Busy residents, office workers under pressure, and inhabitants of bustling commercial or industrial premises are often challenged when it comes to granting access to homes and offices to legitimate visitors. Where security is absolutely essential – like research facilities, high-tech companies, or even homes and residences with minors or elderly inhabitants, that can pose an especially serious situation.

Often, in the hustle and bustle of routine life, people inside such facilities can unwillingly or unwittingly make the wrong choice and let unwanted individuals or groups into the premises. In some instances, the result could be catastrophic, while in many other cases it could add tremendous stress and disruption to normal routine.

The solution: Access systems from Rickard Security!

It’s really that simple!

Secure doors - Managing door entry

It is often a challenge to continually have a physical presence at doors, gates and other access points – like sentries, guards or doormen – to grant physical access to guests, visitors and employees entering or exiting premises. For one, the cost of doing so is likely to be extremely prohibitive. While large industrial complexes may be able to afford such costs, the issue is especially pronounced for single homes, flats and small buildings.

With larger premises however, there is an additional challenge – that of “physically manning” several dozen entry points 24/7. Ideally, you’d like to be able to automate the function of individuals and groups entering your homes, residential complexes, offices and factories, while also ensuring that such entry is only permitted to authorised individuals.

Ultimately though, manually based security systems depend on human intervention. Sometimes, humans can and do err – making a “manned” door a single point of failure within the overall security network.
